Drawn from what David Crawshaw said

What these subjects mean

semiconductors The chips and the companies that make them: NVIDIA, TSMC, ASML, and what a fab can and cannot do.

compilers Programs that turn programs into programs: what a compiler can name, assembly, and building one that serves an editor.

What David Crawshaw actually said

  1. David Crawshaw Software engineer; co-founder and former CTO of Tailscale
    GPUs are not nearly as restricted in their future progress as CPUs which are far more constrained in how they can physically improve (compiler-driven ILP only goes so far).
